Exactamundo! People here are attempting to create reports that show CA/CI splits, without understanding that they're irrelevant, now. I have actually seen people get stuck in the loop of: 1. Look at all the splits 2. Re-org 3. Application runs and re-creates the splits 4. Go to 1. I refer people to: SG24-6105 -- VSAM Demystified whenever they gripe about splits. -teD Me? A skeptic?
